Temporary Pause on Digital Submission of Pre‑Authorized Payment (PAP) Forms

As we transition to a new municipal website launching this summer, we have identified an issue in how our current system receives personal and banking information submitted for Pre‑Authorized Payments (PAP) for water, wastewater, and tax bills.

Effective February 3, the Municipality will temporarily pause the digital submission of PAP forms (including submission through the current website or by email). For those currently enrolled in PAP, there is no required action, and your information is secure. During this transition period, residents may continue to enroll in PAP using one of the following methods:

How to Submit Your PAP Form

By Mail or In Person:
Municipality of Meaford – Municipal Office
21 Trowbridge Street West
Meaford, Ontario
N4L 1A1

Office Hours: Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

We are working with our financial systems provider to implement a secure online submission option, which will be part of our new website when it launches this summer.

Thank you for your understanding as we make necessary improvements to protect your personal information.
